They were crabs, you bounder! Write out a hundred times "I must pay more attention" and do some lemur research.
Aww...I was just testing. As if I'd make a damn fool mistake like that. And I already have a doctrate in advanced lemurology from the University of Samarkand. Lemurs don't drink Becks I can tell you, only the finest Bohemian hops for their delicate palettes.
Did you know that lemurs (Belle and Sebastian's mascot from now on) are unable to hang from their tails? Poor little things! And their noses are...hang on a minute! This could make a cracking quiz - we haven't had a quiz for a while...question one - how big was the now extinct biggest ever lemur? The answer comes as quite a surprise. Question two - how did lemurs get to Madagascar? The answer comes as quite a surprise.
In Noah's Ark? The number 46 from t'Market? They jumped? Hopped? Skipped the light fandango? I give up. Back to school for me, I guess. And what about their noses? Don't keep us in suspense, boy. Belle and Sebastian's mascot? Why stop there? A fire-breathing lemur should stand with pride on their coat of arms, with an inspirational motto (which I can't think of right now).
Did Susannah find 'Tigermilk'?
That's what I'd like to know. I reckon your best bet is little out of the way places, like Burton-on-Trent or Whitby.
Or Bangor. Oh, did you know Fiddlers Dram only got to number three with 'The day we went to Bangor' (oh yes, I have my sources)? And what exactly is a fiddler's dram? Is it like a baker's dozen? Or like tennis elbow. Sorry, no fiddling for me tonight, I've got a terrible dram. I think we should be told. Somebody please write something...
